Airdraw® Airdraw 2-DC
- Chemical Family
- Polyamides
Airdraw® Airdraw 2-DC is embossed with a diamond channel pattern which has been engineered specifically to provide rapid air removal from under the bag when vacuum is drawn. Airdraw 2-DC uses the original Airdraw 2 film which has been formulated to provide increased stiffness to assist in maintaining a breathable pattern, and is a contact material on some specifications. Airdraw 2-DC is not affected by environmental conditions and will not soften in high humidity and maintains the structure of the breathing channels for superior performance. It is designed primarily for ply compaction, with the benefit of not requiring a breather. It is embossed from one side of the film and under close examination the film has a flat side and a side with diamond shaped blisters. The blisters go against the part surface on top of a perforated release film.
